The Detection of Soft X-Rays with Charged Coupled Detectors

  • Conference paper
X-Ray Microscopy

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Optical Sciences ((SSOS,volume 43))

Abstract

The characteristics of an ideal soft x-ray imaging detector are enumerated. Of recent technical developments the CCD or charge coupled device goes furthest to meeting these requirements. Several properties of CCDs are described with reference to experimental work and their application to practical instruments is reviewed.
